Thanks to everyone who participated in our May Day Sale May 1 (International Worker's Day) through May 5.  Whether you got a great deal, offered a stellar product, participated in our interviews or read the blog celebrating our creators, we salute you!  

Our focus during this sale was to shine some light on our creators who work long, hard hours often combined with other day jobs and family life to bring some of the best products to the market.  Many of them began solving challenges in their own work with Blender and found great value in sharing those solutions with the greater community.  Many are up late into the night working on updates and some are sitting in their cars in the parking lot of their office answering your emails before their drive home.  Some have even taken the leap to make a living with their work.  Blender Market Creators, we salute you 🫡.

If you haven't had a chance to read our Meet the Maker Series,  please do check out those articles to meet some of the hardest working Blenderheads around.
